There are a number of protected boat ramps and Busselton is a great place to take the boat out into Geographe Bay to go fishing and diving.

Whale Watching Busselton, Dunsborough & Augusta

Walk out on the Busselton Jetty and you if you’re lucky you will see the whales at play during the whale season (June to September). As they travel north we often get a friendly visit from a pod of whales as they past by. They love to show off their beauty and play in Geography Bay on their way past. A very memorable experience for the children and the big kids!

There are whale watching tours available in Augusta and Busselton. Please ask at the reception for more details.
